Default Anyone running 285/50/20's?

Trying to decide between 275/45/20's or 285/50/20's - anyone have pics of 285/50/20's?

I have them, 275/45 are too short IMO. 285/50 looks much better. Mine rub the sway bar slightly on full lock with 2/4 drop.

Right now it is stock and I am only planning a 2" drop in the rear (to level it out) for the foreseeable future... The wheels I bought had two used 275/55s on them, so last night, I ended up buying two more used 275/55's and I am going to put them on for now. I think they have a little too much sidewall for my liking... I will post up some pics once I get them on the truck. What I really want is something right in the middle of a 275/45 (29.8") and 275/55 (31.9") - the closest is 285/50 (31.3")...
